- Abstract
- “Gold is where you find it.” The Historical and Museum Committee of our Society is seeking “gold” in the form of good historical papers either written by pioneers of our industry or by others who have specialized knowledge of important pioneering work. It is not an easy task to assemble the data for such papers because old photographs and records frequently are buried or lost. Memory of past events becomes dim with the passing of time. Long searches are necessary in museums or private collections to unearth pertinent facts. Interviews are sometimes necessary with persons who may have some knowledge of the event. When the data have been collected and organized, only then can the writing be done.
